Fuxi Was Born

In the distant ancient era, when heaven and earth first took shape and the world was in chaos, numerous mysterious stories quietly unfolded across this vast land. In the far northwest, there was a dreamlike country called Huaxu. It was a paradise, free from the distractions and noises of the mortal world, resembling a celestial wonderland on earth.

The country of Huaxu was like an isolated and mysterious place, inaccessible whether by foot, boat, or carriage. In this land, there was no overbearing government or commanding leader. The people led a simple life, free from excessive desires and addictions. Their lives were happy and long, as if they had transcended the bonds of the mundane world. Even more incredibly, they possessed extraordinary supernatural powers: they wouldn't drown when falling into water, wouldn't get burned when falling into fire, and could walk in the sky as easily as on the ground, just like immortals on earth.

In the country of Huaxu, there was a beautiful girl named Huaxuhua. One day, she went on an exciting trip to Leize, a magnificent and mysterious marshland in the east. Leize was like the eye of the earth, profound and mysterious, surrounded by an otherworldly atmosphere. As Huaxuhua strolled along the edge of Leize, she was suddenly drawn to an enormous footprint. It was incredibly large and oddly shaped, as if it came from another mysterious realm. Overwhelmed by curiosity, she couldn't resist the urge to place her foot on the footprint to compare their sizes.

The moment her foot touched the footprint, something extraordinary happened. Huaxuhua suddenly felt as if an invisible snake was coiling around her body, and a strange, indescribable sensation spread throughout her. However, this feeling vanished in an instant, so quickly that she thought it was just her imagination. She didn't give it a second thought and continued her journey.

When Huaxuhua returned home that night, over time, she gradually noticed something unusual with her body—she was pregnant. Time passed, and the normal ten - month pregnancy period went by, yet there was no sign of labor. As the days went by, her family and fellow tribesmen were greatly puzzled, but everyone waited expectantly for the new life to arrive.

Twelve long years passed in this way. Finally, the moment of childbirth came for Huaxuhua, and a baby boy was born. But the appearance of the baby astonished everyone: he had the head of a human and the body of a snake. Despite his strange appearance, everyone knew that this child was extraordinary and named him Fuxi.
